Smiley's spox, Josh Estrella, has responded to City councilors' letter asking for the December charges against Brown students to be dropped: "It is unprecedented and inappropriate for elected officials to make requests of or demands on the handling of prosecutions."
Here's the letter Brown President Christina Paxson sent students at the encampment today. She says if they clear the area, the Brown Corporation will hear their case for divestment, but it will not be taken up for a vote.
City Council prez and Councilors Roias and Sanchez wrote a letter to the solicitor on April 18 asking him to drop trespassing charges against 41 Brown University student protesters arrested back in December during a sit-in. No response yet from the solicitor.
Brown spokesman Brian Clark has released a statement on the encampment. He says it violates university policy "and all of the students participating have been informed they will face conduct proceedings."
The scene on the Brown main green this morning. Students say they’ve already been warned about disciplinary action but no warnings of arrest so far. Counted more than two dozen tents.
As of 6am this morning, Brown University students started their own encampment on the main green, again calling on the school to divest from weapons manufacturers. Brown now part of a growing list of elite colleges dealing with on-campus encampments.
Today, PC spox Steve Maurano says: "Provost Reid’s resignation had noting to do with the LGBTQ+ issue. It is completely separate."

Here at the State House, Gov. McKee says accidents on/around Washington Bridge went from about 1 per day before the partial closure to 2-3 per day after closure. Mostly minor and caused by distracted driving.

Brown spox has also not answered my list of questions from 9:52 am. And I think has not taken a phone call from me or called me back in over a year?
So far, Brown has not answered questions on whether it plans to have anyone in the encampment arrested at any point, or whether it will let peaceful protesters stay. Awaiting a reply since ~10am this morning.
